Step By Step

A Story by EnternalNight

This story is about a girl named Alice...if I tell you anymore I'm afraid I'll give the story away! Let me know if I should continue with it.

Take a deep breath... Understand the things around you, for you can feel, you can hear, you can taste the tears on your lips, and see yourself in the mirror across from you...

You pull your long brown hair up in a messy pony tail, your bangs hang down no matter how hard you try to fix them into what you want...

Watery sorrow laced green eyes look back at you as you wipe the tears from your cheeks and take one more deep breath...You can make it through the day, you tell yourself, you can smile and laugh and no one will notice your hurting...

With that you step out of the bathroom and walk into your room to find your mother in the door way smiling at you, you smile back even if it feels wrong and grab your bag. She shouts, Have a good day!, and you reply with a you too! Before walking out the front door and stepping into your car...

This is how I start every morning, and I am sick of being stuck in this same sorrow filled cycle.. but I haven’t found a way out yet... and I'm not sure I ever will... My names Alice Pedinatore... I'm a closeted Lipstick Lesbian... and this is my story....
